  • January 19, 2009
    Has to be added to the list of the classic 80s comedies. Kind of had a scrubs and family guy feel to it which was pretty cool. Funny how Cusack kept trying to kill himself and it just seemed funny the whole time.
  • January 16, 2009
    It has some funny parts, but I find the 80s very frustrating.
  • January 16, 2009
    this movie is frickin' hilarious...a well-deserved cult that followed.

    cusack is great in anything
  • January 6, 2009
    There's just something so so so wrong about a madcap comedy about a suicidal teen. Cusack is always good though. A completely misguided film.

    A classic Cusack 80's comedy. That's a shame, throwing away a perfectly good white boy.
  • November 21, 2008
    Haha, this movie is so random and hilarious. John Cusack is great. I love how this movie is full of real feelings in teenagers, but it's gone to such a laughable level. It's awesome.
  • November 15, 2008
    This film is a non-stop laugh fest and the ultimate epitome of the 80's.
  • November 1, 2008
    Recipe for great movie: hot exchange student, singing hamburgers and homicidal paper boys. lol!
  • November 1, 2008
    Lane Meyer (John Cusack) meets French foreign-exchange student named Monique (Diane Franklin) is staying with Lane's neighborhood across the street to pretend she can't speak English but she can speak English only with Lane.

    absolutely hilarious
  • October 1, 2008
    A cooky little movie, in the usual Cusack mould. If you're a fan of Ferris Bueller's Day off or the slightly more off beat 80s comedies then add this to the must watch list.

  • September 14, 2008
